Why have the default settings for a new teacher account changed?

[c_howard]

I've just created a new teacher account via https://www.canvas.instructure.com . All the name fields in Settings are blank. These fields used to default to the username data entered on the new account dialog. This has changed recently and now my application will not launch because it relies on the name field containing data. Is this a bug or an intended change. I need to know how to address this in our application going forward.
